Chapter 1366: Chapter 1322: Borrowing Fate to Nurture Gu Yuan, Refining Wang Yao to Climb to the Supreme!

At this moment, Mu Qing and the others were greatly shocked, even incredulous, at Xiao Chen’s thoughts. But after careful consideration, they found it to be surprisingly feasible. If meticulously planned, it would bring countless benefits to the Gu Yuan Tribe!

Under this heaven and earth, all living beings harbor an immense reverence for their own clan’s destiny, for destiny represents the fate and fortune of a warrior!

"Master, what about the junior brothers?"

Abruptly, Yun Wei spoke up, understanding that Xiao Chen was considering for her fellow disciples. Becoming a supreme king is a major hurdle for any living being from any race across all heavens—a transformation transcending life’s strata.

Even if one’s talent is unmatched, before actually bridging this chasm, it remains an unknown to the warrior!

"What your teacher has come up with is only so much. Whether or not you can step into this supreme realm will depend on yourselves from here on!"

Abruptly, Xiao Chen heaved a sigh. This was indeed a helpless situation.

"Master, look at senior sister, she has ascended to the supreme realm; this disciple also wishes to achieve the supreme!"

At this, Zi Yuan spoke with a giggle, shaking her arm.

"You silly girl, you’re being mischievous again. Haven’t you seen how much your master has racked his brain for your senior brothers’ breakthroughs? He even considered tapping into destiny; ascending to the supreme is not so simple!"

Mu Qing scolded, but Zi Yuan wasn’t the least bit scared; instead, she said to Mu Qing and Nianhua, "I’m not messin’ around. Yuan’er and the senior brothers are different. Don’t believe me? Ask the Master!"

"Master!"

Thereupon, Zi Yuan snorted, and spoke up again, "Master, I want to refine elixirs into my body and ascend to the supreme!"

What!

Yuan’er’s words shocked everyone in the garden.

"Yuan’er, don’t be foolish."

This time, Yun Wei gently tugged at Zi Yuan, softly saying, "The supreme realm is not so easily attained. The perils are unthinkable. Although you have also reached the Half-King Peak Realm, among us siblings, your strength is the weakest. You cannot withstand the king’s tribulation."

Worry filled Yun Wei’s eyes. Over the years, the sisterly affection they shared was profound; how could she not know Zi Yuan well? At this moment, Zi Yuan’s eyes glimmered with determination—she had made up her mind.

And once Zi Yuan was set on something, changing her mind was downright impossible. Just like when she used to try to escape from the tribe, despite being caught and punished multiple times, she still strived to leave.

"Master, Yuan’er has thought it through!"

Zi Yuan grasped Yun Wei’s jade hand, and her formerly playful demeanor now became extremely solemn.

"Yuan’er, the king’s great calamity can lead to the soul scattering if mishandled. Why not consolidate for a few more years before attempting ascension? You are still young, there’s no need to rush."

"Yes, Yuan’er, you can’t be capricious. This isn’t like when you were little and could freely escape the tribe. Mother did not agree!"

Even Mu Qing and Nianhua voiced their objections.

"Master Mother, senior sister, Yuan’er is no longer a child. I am well aware of my cultivation; Yuan’er naturally never excelled in combat. Moreover, after inheriting the Alchemy Path, most of my time is devoted to the study of medicinal principles. Even if I continue to cultivate and accumulate, I won’t be able to surmount the king’s great calamity on my own—I am very clear on this."

Zi Yuan nestled beside her Master Mother and senior sister, speaking softly.

"So, even if I spend more time accumulating, I still won’t be confident against the king’s great calamity. Rather than that, why not explore other ways?"

Saying this, Zi Yuan’s eyes looked towards Xiao Chen.

"Yuan’er, are you truly decided?"

Looking at her resolute little face, Xiao Chen felt that this smallest and most disobedient disciple had grown up a lot.

"Master, I’ve thought it over clearly. Stepping into the supreme realm be it for myself or for the Alchemy Path, will be of immense help. After all, King Grade Medicine can only be condensed by kings. And ascending to the king, the previous basic Alchemy Path will be sorted out more swiftly and clearly."

"Incorporating Wang Yao into the body is also fraught with danger. If one can’t steady their core, they will get completely lost—whether they remain human or turn into medicine will be uncertain!"

Xiao Chen became solemn as well. Frankly, no Medicine King had been known throughout the Hundred Realms in the visible Wilderness for 100,000 years. Perhaps they existed among the Human Race, but those would be reclusive sages, never appearing casually.

Every Medicine King is a strategically vital living treasure for the Human Race.

A Medicine King’s power could seize the fortune of Qiankun. It is said that when Medicine Kings refine ordinary Spiritual Pills, they don’t need any elixir formulas at all. They only need to consider the warrior’s constitution to merge the needed Spirit Medicine perfectly, making it most suitable for the warrior’s absorption and Refinement!

If a Medicine King were to emerge from the Gu Yuan King’s Department, let alone the influence, just for the tribe itself, it would be a tremendous benefit.

Of course, Xiao Chen, the pseudo-Alchemist aside. Before the King Grade Elixir, he could still use the Mountain River Seal to formulate them. But upon entering the King level, it became a different realm and transformation. Without comprehending the ultimate truths of heaven and earth, one cannot snatch the fortune of Qiankun!

"Master, I have thought about this for a long time, and I have been making preparations. If I could fully merge with a Wang Yao, leveraging its power to climb to the supreme realm, then the chances of overcoming the heavenly tribulation would greatly increase."

Zi Yuan nodded in response.

Ingesting the King Medicine doesn’t equate to an instant rise to kingship; one still needs to overcome tribulations. However, if merged with the King Medicine, Zi Yuan would undoubtedly possess some aspects of a king.

"My Lord."

Seeing that Xiao Chen seemed to be relenting, Mu Qing and Nianhua immediately became anxious. This was no joking matter; it was about life and death.

"Yuan’er has grown up before our eyes. Although playful by nature, she’s not wrong. Innate Medicine Bone, naturally versed in the Alchemy Path, her talent is not in cultivating for battle."

Looking at his two wives and his disciple Yun Wei’s eager eyes, Xiao Chen sighed and then spoke.

"That’s why for those who inherit the Medicine Bone in previous generations, ascending to kingship before their time is a huge obstacle. Their path is much more difficult than their peers of the same rank and talent, and it’s fair to say they have no chance to ascend to the Dao of Kingship!"

"However, the operations of Heavenly Path have their own determinations. The world evolves with fifty escapes and leaves a sliver of opportunity for life. Likewise, people like Yuan’er have another way to ascend to the supreme!"

"Master, are you referring to the method of refining the King Medicine into the body? But Junior Sister is only at the Peak of the Half-King Realm, and the King Medicine is still King Medicine, with its inherent tier. Perhaps the King Medicine doesn’t possess the true battle power of a king, but it represents a different life form. How could the Junior Sister possibly refine it?"

In her urgency, Yun Wei spoke out, even turning her gaze towards Zi Yuan.

Embarrassed, Zi Yuan looked down, knowing that her Senior Sister blamed her for keeping such a significant matter to herself and not sharing it.

"Senior Sister, the Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire in Yuan’er’s body naturally possesses the power to subdue all kinds of Spirit Medicine. If it absorbs enough power from the King Medicine, it can progress to become the Purple Extreme King Fire."

At that moment, the previously downcast Zi Yuan suddenly raised her head and looked at Yun Wei, a defiant look growing stronger in her eyes.

"Enough!"

At that moment, Xiao Chen’s voice rang out, and everyone looked towards him since his opinion was the final decision.

"Yuan’er, since you wish to try having the King Medicine enter your body, then give it a try!"

"Thank you, Master!"

"Master, that’s not right."

"My Lord!"

"My Lord, you mustn’t!"

Four voices of protest instantly echoed through the Blue Stone Garden.

"I haven’t finished speaking yet." Xiao Chen smiled wryly, then continued, "Let Yuan’er try first. With me here, if it proves to be impossible, we’ll stop immediately!"

"Master."

"This is a matter of life and death; you shouldn’t take it upon yourself to decide."

Seeing Zi Yuan’s expression, Xiao Chen suddenly spoke coldly.

"Oh." At that, Zi Yuan obediently quieted down.

Seeing Xiao Chen speak so, Mu Qing and the other two were finally reassured. Ascending to supreme kingship was not so easy; otherwise, Mu Qing would have already reached the threshold but was always stuck, unable to advance!

"Go back and prepare well. Condense your Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire to its peak state. When you pass my examination, then you can have the King Medicine enter your body."

Xiao Chen once again addressed Zi Yuan, knowing that this youngest disciple needed a firm hand occasionally, or she’d become too complacent.

"Alright, let’s move on to the next matter." Xiao Chen then resumed.

"Wei’er, you will succeed as the master of the War God Temple. I will arrange for the Tribe’s Warriors to take up elder management positions, so when it comes time to distribute fate, it will be convenient for you to do so. Thus, as people of the War God Temple, the will of human destiny won’t detect anything."

"Yes, Master."

In reality, Yun Wei had no objections to Xiao Chen’s arrangements. The Gu Yuan King’s Department established the War God Temple, dedicating itself to nurturing the youth of the Human World. The resulting merits would be enough to shake the heavens and earth and to cover any faults of their own clan.

This was indeed a harvest. The Gu Yuan Clan went to great lengths to nurture the youth of the Human Realm; after all, the majority in the Desolate Land still lacked higher-level Martial Arts heritage.

If even one-tenth or one-one-hundredth of these people gained the chance to learn high-level Techniques, they would bring countless Strong Ones to the Human Realm and influence the future of humanity in immeasurable ways – a tremendous merit!

"Furthermore, your two Mistress-mothers and your Junior Sister will also hold titles in the War God Temple."

"Yun Wei understands!"

Utilizing the fate gathered from nurturing the talented youth of the entire Desolate Wilds to nourish the Gu Yuan Clan was a mad scheme that only Xiao Chen could conceive!

As the War God Temple grows stronger and gains more fate, it will become increasingly beneficial for the Gu Yuan Clan. It might not be apparent at first, but as the years pass by, the War God Temple and the Gu Yuan King’s Department will complement each other.
